Breakdown Documents into Study Notes using Templating MistralAI and Qdrant

Description

This n8n workflow takes in a document such as a research paper, marketing or sales deck or company filings, and breaks them down into 3 templates: study guide, briefing doc and timeline.

These templates are designed to help a student, associate or clerk quickly summarise, learn and understand the contents to be more productive.

Study guide - a short quiz of questions and answered generated by the AI Agent using the contents of the document.
Briefing Doc - key information and insights are extracted by the AI into a digestable form.
Timeline - key events, durations and people are identified and listed into a simple to understand timeline by the AI

How it works
A local file trigger watches a local network directory for new documents.
New documents are imported into the workflow, its contents extracted and vectorised into a Qdrant vector store to build a mini-knowledgebase.
The document then passes through a series of template generating prompts where the AI will perform "research" on the knowledgebase to generate the template contents.
Generated study guide, briefing and timeline documents are exported to a designated folder for the user.

Requirements
Self-hosted version of n8n.
Qdrant instance for knowledgebase.
Mistral.ai account for embeddings and AI model.
